This page lists, in summary form, the collections currently available online from The Ashburton Archive and others that will be added in the future.

St.Andrews Churchyard Memorial Inscriptions; Current Content:

(as at 11th February 2018)

1956 Section - All parts covering burials from 1956 - 2015.

1884 Section - All parts covering burials from 1884 - 2015.

'The Old Section' of the churchyard - sub-sections 'A' & 'W' only at this time.

Note_1: The 1884 and 1956 Sections of the Churchyard are now complete on this website. No further changes are planned.

Note_2: The Old Section - although originally used for all burials in the churchyard until approx. 1884, this section now also includes many in-fill burials for the period (approx) 1950-2017.

Note_3: The recent photographic surveys undertaken by this project (between 2014 - 2018), of all the sections of the churchyard, have identified that many of the original survey grid references were incorrectly assigned. Where appropriate, we have re-aligned the grid-references sequentially along the rows, allowing for blank plots, unmarked graves and/or in-fill burials.

We will update this list as new items are added to the online collection.

Further updates are planned for 2018, specifically for the Old Section of the churchyard, to include sub-sections B, C, D and G.
